196 The Beginning of Peace (I)

In Xiao Ruxun's consciousness, as long as he gets these, then the rest of the land cut, to be honest, is not very important, if the Japanese bite to death and do not let go, we can also give up, of course, if we can get one or two counties, anyway, there are not too many coolies, and the tens of millions of people in Japan are the wealth of the Ming Dynasty.

If Japan does not agree, then Xiao Ruxun will take up an expedition of 40,000 troops across the sea, kill hundreds of thousands of him, take dozens of pieces of land from him, and increase the weight of the demand, not afraid that he will not agree! We are a victorious country, we must have a tough attitude and resolute requirements, if you can't keep those bottom lines, don't come back to see me!

Of course, we can also show our request to Xuan Su to see his reaction, of course, we can't let him know our bottom line.

After reading this letter, Chen Lan digested it for a while before digesting the news into his head.

Throughout the ages, for 5,000 years, did the Central Plains Dynasty make these demands in foreign wars? Can you still pay compensation for silver and gold mines? Three million, that's the total amount of tax revenue of the Ming government in a year, and what is this so-called treaty port? Isn't trade the thing that the barbarians hope for most? Why did the Ming Dynasty instead ask the Japanese to open a commercial port, and they could not collect taxes? What is the reasoning behind this?

Chen Lan pondered for a while, in addition to the gold and silver shocking, there are still some things here that cannot be figured out, the first time he came into contact with this kind of thing, Chen Lan was very surprised.

After thinking about it again and again, Chen Luan recruited Deng Zilong and shared this secret letter with his old buddy.

"Indemnity silver? Indemnity for land cession? Treaty port? This ......" Deng Zilong tilted his head, his face was stunned and puzzled: "What is the Admiral thinking?" As long as you get the silver mountain gold mountain, wouldn't it be good? What do you want these to do? If you don't give it to us, we will rob it, and you don't see what Luo Shangzhi's men and horses beat the Japanese during the day, and the Japanese are not our opponents at all. ā€

Chen Xuan said: "The meaning of the admiral is very clear, the Japanese are not our opponents in the field, but the Japanese city is very tricky, we currently have no way to deal with the Japanese city, unless we are heavily besieged, but our troops are not advantageous, and the supply of food and salary is also very difficult, and a long-term siege is unrealistic, this is our weakness, it is not wise to attack the enemy with my short and long, and if you can get it at the negotiation table, don't shed blood." ā€

"That's what it means, but we can't get what we deserve and get a lot of what we don't want, right? This treaty port is duty-free...... This one...... This...... What is this? Isn't real money much better than these things? If you want me to say, we don't want anything, we just want this mountain of gold and silver! ā€

Deng Zilong was too upright, Chen Lan shook his head and smiled: "I pondered for a while, I think this is the mastery of the Admiral, we mix what we want with what we don't want, the lion opened his mouth and told the Japanese in one breath, asking them if they would give it, they would definitely not want to give it, because it was not on the verge of extinction, but if it really wants to beat us, what should we do?"

Talk! Just like those businessmen do business, bargaining, we bite what we want and don't let go, what we don't need is just a disguise, used as a cover, the Japanese ask for something back, so that they think they have taken a big advantage, and the rest of what we really want will be in hand, maybe, we can get some extra heads. ā€

Chen Lan said this, Deng Zilong thought like this, hey, that's really what happened!

"But if you really say that, will the Japanese really take the initiative to negotiate with us? I can see that there are a lot of cannons sticking out of the head of that city, and it seems that they want to fight with us seriously, so a group of people who are stubborn and stubborn can take the initiative to negotiate with us? ā€

Chen Ling shrugged his shoulders and said: "I don't know what the situation is, the admiral sent this letter, saying that someone will definitely come to negotiate with us, and we don't want to find it ourselves, do you say this matter is true or false?" ā€

"I don't know, but the Admiral really hasn't said anything wrong. You're going to say...... Well? ā€

Chen Lan and Deng Zilong both heard some noise on the deck outside, frowned, and were just about to go out of the hatch to look, when there was a knock on the hatch.

"Commander-in-chief! We've caught two pirates! ā€

Chen Lan and Deng Zilong glanced at each other, and were wondering, as soon as they opened the door, they saw a group of soldiers escorting a Japanese robber and a bald monk, and the bald monk immediately shouted when he saw Chen Lan and Deng Zilong: "General Daming, we, we are not widows!" We're here to negotiate! We're here to please! ā€

Chen Lan was stunned for a moment, looked at the bald monk and the unlucky looking widow, and then looked at Deng Zilong, and he really didn't say anything for a while.

It took a while to hear this monk explain things clearly.

He is indeed not a spy or a spy, but a negotiating envoy on the Japanese side, but it seems that he did not come on behalf of Toyotomi Hideyoshi, but on behalf of a guy named Tokugawa Ieyasu, the Japanese can't speak Chinese, and the monk can speak, so he brought it as a translator, Chen Ling and Deng Zilong are not the first time to hear the name of Toyotomi Hideyoshi, they all know that Toyotomi Hideyoshi is Japan's minister, that is, he launched the Korean War, but who this Tokugawa Ieyasu is, they really don't know.

"This seems to be really here to ask for peace, but I see that there are some doorways here, and the Admiral doesn't seem to have mentioned it, but the Admiral has said that I have something I don't understand, so I will ask the monk Xuansu, otherwise, let's ask that Xuansu?"

Chen Lan asked Deng Zilong, of course Deng Zilong didn't have any ideas, and nodded in agreement.

After a while, Xuan Su was brought, and when he saw the two unlucky guys, he was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly asked, "Chief Chen Bing, Deputy Chief Deng Bing, what's going on?" These two people? ā€

"I came to you for the sake of these two people, they said that they were not sent by Toyotomi Hideyoshi, but that the name is what Kawa and what Yasu...... You, say, tell him! He is Japanese. ā€

Chen Lan couldn't remember the name of the four words, and felt that he was tongue-twisting, so he directly asked the monk to talk to Xuan Su, and the monk said Japanese to Xuan Su, Xuan Su immediately changed his face, and then cautiously said to Chen Luan: "Chen Zongbing, they are indeed not sent by Toyotomi Hideyoshi, but by Tokugawa Ieyasu." ā€

"Tokugawa Ieyasu? Who? ā€

Chen Lan asked.

"It is the most powerful prince in Japan except for Toyotomi Hideyoshi, or the leader of the eastern princes, who have the strength to replace Toyotomi Hideyoshi, they are sent by Tokugawa Ieyasu, saying that Tokugawa Ieyasu has the idea of replacing Toyotomi Hideyoshi, and it is Toyotomi Hideyoshi's willful intention to start a war with the Celestial Empire, and they are unwilling to follow Toyotomi Hideyoshi, so they plan to personally solve Toyotomi Hideyoshi, and then surrender to the Celestial Empire."

Chen Lan was stunned again, glanced at Deng Zilong, and saw that Deng Zilong was also surprised, and then the two showed a look of amazement together, which made Xuan Su a little confused.
